    music box front end

    I like myHtpc and you can customize the button layout to however you want. I have read some really good tutorials on organizing your music for it and you can use winamp as your player. I wish the layout was a little more user friendly in terms of playlist and what not. Check out...

    grounding question - rocker switch

    assuming the led is being powered by the positive post on the switch you could probably just ground it to the 12v black ground on the molex. I am guessing you just wired 12v through to the cc. This should work.

    Why do people complain about dremeling?

    yeah that case looks like something the tech director we had back in high school could do. He made armor out of metal, basically just using a hammer and his hands. Quite an amazing skill to have.

    The Coffin Case

    Gl the interior sounds sexy, and if you pull it off right the mod sounds like a very cool idea. But to have to do it on a dell, well that blowz cause it would be much easier to pick up a beige, plain case without all the plastic and bullshit mounting shit inside.

    Linux System

    Linux should run on most anything. I litteraly scrapped together a linux box and it runs like a champ. I had parts sitting around my room. The trick is to not being impatient with it once it is installed, and work with it to get it fully working to its potential. Most people will help you...
